RE: Simplified systems – 2x7Kwh Valliant ASHPs

@sapper117 sounds good. Cheaper, warmer and most importantly a happy partner. Our wood and coal burners are now also nice to haves rather than th...

RE: 14kW Midea ASHP in an old leaky building

@cathoderay Do the Midea capacity figures include an allowance for defrosts? Mitsubishi's data includes this for its 2 deg C figures. In that link...

RE: 14kW Midea ASHP in an old leaky building

@cathoderay What I was getting at is that if your ASHP were performing according to the Midea specs then it would be close to meeting your requirem...

RE: Fine tuning your ASHP performance

@markc Good results and looks like you made the right decision. Even allowing for the warmer November you're still using a lot less power. I did t...

RE: 14kW Midea ASHP in an old leaky building

RE: Undersized ASHPs & Unbelievable energy bills
